My car keeps over heating when I’m driving

My car keeps over heating when I’m driving. It’s a 360 with mild cam. I have a Electric fan. It’s a low profile fan because it’s a small spot. Do I need a bigger fan? Or different radiator?

You have alot of wasted radiator there... Look how much is outside the fan... If your car is standing still, there is no airflow through the radiator that is outside the fan diameter...

You need a good shroud and then move the fan rearward to help pull air through the whole radiator... Why not get a mechanical fan, clutch fan is good or just a non clutch may work better than the electric fan... Mechanical fans are more efficient than electric fans... the shroud should have some funnel shape to help direct the air from all ends of the radiator through the fan to pull it through... You don't want a fan shroud that's 90° from the radiator airflow, it should have some draft...

The fan should overlap the shroud by about 50% in and 50% outside of the shroud for it to work efficiently...
